Ronan’s offense was stellar, but its defense was equally the star in a 74-16 victory over Lake County rival Mission in non-league basketball action on Friday, Jan. 10. The Chiefs held the Bulldogs to single digit scoring in both the first and second half.

Kolby Finley hit nine shots, was 5-for-5 from the free-throw line and finished with 23 points and five rebounds. Sean Small added 11 points and four rebounds, while Chad Higgins had five rebounds and eight points. Ronan was 14-for-17 from the free throw line and had 12 steals as a team.

Ronan led 18-6 after one quarter and went on a 25-2 run to finish the half for a 43-8 advantage at the break. The Chiefs then opened up the second half with a 22-4 run.
